Accessing another person's task/contact list

[PK Consulting]

I'm using Outlook 2003. I have one instance of Outlook running under an
administrator sign-on, and another one runing under a standard user sign-on.
I would like the standard user to have access to the adminsitrator user's
task and contact list. I'm using a pop3 incoming and a smtp outgoing server.
Is there a way to accomplish this?

Put the administrator's PST in a folder which the standard user has
permission to access.

Brian, thanks for your reply. Wouldn't this mean that both the administrator
and the standard would update the .pst? This would be ok for tasks and
addresses, but I don't want to see mail in both users' email box.

Since all of Outlook's data is kept in the same file, unless one of the
users creates a separate PST and periodically copies only the Tasks and
Contacts folders to it to keep it up to date, you can't hide folders.
Moreover, only one Outlook can have a PST open. Both users couldn't access
the same PST at the same time.
